Open source promises to fundamentally change the economics of the networking industry, reduce complexity, and accelerate service velocity. RIFT.io is committed to working and participating in open source communities that advance open networking technologies. At RIFT.io we not only incorporate open source components into RIFT.ware, we publish RIFT.ware as an open source project so everyone can access and make improvements.

RIFT.io is a founding member and seed code contributor to Open Source MANO (OSM).
Open Source MANO is an operator-led initiative to meet the requirements for orchestration of production NFV networks. RIFT.io joined the OSM community because we believe in the project’s mission of delivering an open source Management and Orchestration (MANO) stack that can consume openly available Information Models, aligned with ETSI NFV specifications.
RIFT.io’s important contribution to OSM includes the Network Service Orchestration (NSO) Layer, which is responsible for the end-to-end network service delivery and drives the coherent service delivery through the Resource Orchestration and VNF Configuration components. RIFT.io also provided the GUI and system visibility Layer, which provides a single view into configuring and reviewing the state of the orchestration environment, as well as detailed views of the underlying compute and network topologies the orchestration environment is managing.
We believe that the transformation to virtualized networks depends on an open source platform that simplifies orchestration of virtual network services and opens the industry to innovative, best-of-breed virtualized and cloud-delivered network solutions.
